Faculty Position Openings
2006-2007 Academic Year

General Information

The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at Santa Clara University is in the College of Arts and Sciences, an undergraduate college. The emphasis is on excellent teaching, but research is encouraged.

Santa Clara is on a quarter calendar (where each course meets 200 minutes per week for 10 weeks). Monday/Wednesday/Friday classes are 65 minutes long and Tuesday/Thursday classes are 100 minutes. The Fall Quarter begins in mid-September and continues till early December. The Winter Quarter begins right after New Year's Day and Spring Quarter ends in the second week of June.

Since the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science does not sponsor any graduate program at this time, faculty members mainly teach several sections of lower division service courses as part of the annual teaching assignment, with some specialized upper division courses.

The University's location in "Silicon Valley" offers many opportunities for contacts with high tech industry.
